OUR APPROACH
Psychology and Counselling for individuals, couples and families
Our team of clinical psychologists and counsellors are highly skilled and experienced in working with stress, anxiety, relationships, depression, grief & trauma/ PTSD.
We are different from other practices for two reasons:
Experience with and Support for Diversity:
We support clients on diverse issues relating to gender, age, ethnicity, sexual orientation, language, consumption habits and other belief/lifestyle-related issues. Our experience as professionals as well as our own lived experience as individuals makes us uniquely placed to offer clients empathy, support, insight and care.
We are also a multi-lingual team of therapists who offer support in multiple languages.
Evidence-based yet Innovative Techniques:
While we use and are highly experienced in mainstream approaches - such as Schema therapy, Acceptance and commitment therapy, Dialectical behavior therapy and Cognitive behavioral therapy - we don’t use a cookie cutter approach. Instead, we tailor our therapeutic approaches to suit different personality types and client needs. Some of our approaches include Animal-assisted therapy, Art therapy and Somatic experiencing, among others.
